Hazard

The suction cups can easily detach from the projectiles. If a child puts the projectile in the mouth, the suction cups may detach and obstruct the airways. The suction cups contain di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) (measured value: 4.5 % by weight) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) (measured value: 14% by weight). These phthalates may harm the health of children causing possible damage to the reproductive system.The kinetic energy of the projectiles fired from the toy gun is too high which can lead to eye injuries. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation and the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
